Seven of the nurses at the county hospital spent a most enjoyable evening Monday evening picnicking in the grove near Groom’s bridge. The party was taken out in automobiles by Misses Lois May and Ruth Gulbranson. “We wish to ask the owners of automobiles to please keep in mind the fact that unless a car is driven quietly in front of the hospital it is very disturbing to those who are sick, so much so in fact that the evenings, and especially Wednesday and Saturday nights, have become a dread. In behalf of the patients we ask you to us in making them comfortable by remembering a few don’ts: “Don’t drive by with cut-out open. “Don’t stop within the hospital quiet zone and leave your engine running. “Don’t drive by the hospital without remembering that some one appreciated the fact if you tried to be quiet “Don’t forget that if you come to us sick we will put forth every effort to make you comfortable. “MATTIE HEMPHILL, Supt.”
